I know it sounds daft, but I took the air filter cover off, to firstly clean the filter, but also to look at what could be done with the bland cover.

I noticed, that quite a bit of gasket material was in the chamber, it’s a shame, but I had thrown out what I had cut out, so can’t show just how much. It was maybe approx. 2mm around the circumference

Drove it today, and instantly it was pulling better, as I suspect the air was flowing better into the throttle.



I would be interested if anyone else finds the same.
